1.Which chapter in World History did you enjoy most this year and why? The chapter that I enjoyed most this year was Chapter 13 African empires. I liked learning about the kingdoms and Africa I liked the kingdoms because I like how some of the kingdoms look. The architecture is fascinating because it looks like sand.


2.Describe some of the things that you learned in that chapter. Is there a project that you completed that you enjoyed working on?
I learned that the Sahara is the largest desert in the world and Mali’s buildings are made out of sand bricks. Gold was a valuable resource to the empires and is still valued today. I enjoyed working on the rap on Ghana.


3.What new skills have you learned throughout the year?

New skills I learned throughout the year were map skills including how to use a key and a scale for miles. This helped me to understand the size of countries and the distance between countries. I never knew the world was such a big place!


4.How can you apply this knowledge to the real world?
The knowledge that I have has made me want to travel to different places I would like to go and see the kingdoms that were Mali, Songhai and Ghana in Africa. I will know how far I am traveling.
